I have a request for all of those lucky people who will be enjoying Opening Weekend in a couple days. If you have a chance, could you post any helpful tips, hints, stories, etc. that you think could help the rest of us who are going after the opening? Even if you think it's trivial, I'm sure your insight could prove very helpful to the rest of us. Many thanks and PROST!

We've been and come home already. Most importantly, go and have fun. With no reservations, we got in tents on Saturday and Sunday. We had a group of 8. We broke up on Saturday but sat together on Sunday. All the stress about getting in was for nothing. Be willing to drink early in the day and you can sit anywhere. The atmosphere at night is definitely different than the day. But, both are worth seeing. Take $$ and patience and you will have a blast. We had a great time!

We got there around 9:00 am on Saturday and 9:45 on Sunday. If it is a weekday even later is fine. On the weekends I'd go at least that early. We were in the Spaten, Hippodrome, Augistiner and Lowenbrau tents to drink. They were all a blast. The beer gardens outside are also lots of fun. It gets very hot and smokey inside. The outside is a nice break. If you are not smokers pack a third lung you will need it.
